A 47-year-old Iron Maiden fan is suing Live Nation, Pavilion Partners GP, Staff Pro Inc. and Contemporary Services Corp. for injuries he claims to have suffered at a July 1 concert when someone started a bonfire, Metal Injection reports. Mario Esteban Barron says he and his family were at a concert at the Glen Helen Amphitheater in San Bernardino, California when he was knocked into the fan-created fire and was “consumed by flames,” the lawsuit says. He was pulled to safety by other concertgoers. Barron says his injuries left him unable to return to his job as a sheet worker. He is seeking unspecified damages.
